ADVANTAGES FOR THE COMPLIANCE OFFICER

  • The auditor can only check documents with the status "ready". If mandatory documents are missing, the customer dossier remains in the status "incomplete" and cannot be checked. This ensures that the auditor only checks complete customer dossiers.
  • Any number of mandatory and voluntary checks can be created for each document. If a mandatory check is not accepted, the document and thus the entire dossier remains "incomplete".
  • To correct a defect, the inspector can schedule an appointment. Each check is logged in detail and can be reviewed and verified.
    In the customer overview, the auditor can see the AMLA risks of all customers, the status and the open deficiencies at a glance.
  • As soon as all checks have been accepted by the auditor, the customer receives the status "OK". This means that recurring checks of documents that have already been checked can be avoided in the future.
  • All examinations can be performed online and thus also from the home office. Auditors who are also members of IGUV can use the tool free of charge.
  • Upon request, auditors will be added to our list of auditors so that further interested interested asset managers can contact them. can contact them.
